They are supported by friends and family, and they interact regularly with characters from New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), some of whom are real-life pro wrestlers from the federation, as well as a rival federation called Global Wrestling Monopoly (GWM). The character design for the anime was done by Hisashi Kagawa, who worked on anime shows such as The Kindaichi Case Files, Saikano, Fresh Pretty Cure[1], and Sailor Moon.

Angry, he decides to fight against the Tiger's Den group which is affiliated with GWM.[1] He initially allies himself with the NJPW wrestlers, who eventually help them develop his signature technique, Tiger Drive. After losing during the War Games and watching Tiger the Dark being unmasked by The Third, he realizes his hated rival was in fact his friend Takuma. Naoto shares his identity with him and the two friends reconcile. Now even hungrier for revenge, Naoto desperately seeks a match with The Third, with Miss X binding Naoto to a contract to get him his match, in exchange of betraying the NJPW, which makes him sink to commit fouls and lose his reputation. Tiger Mask is however cruelly utilized as a sacrificial pawn for GWM's schemes, while leaving him with eroded trust by his NJPW peers. He eventually regains their trust after saving Nagata and reforms their alliance against the GWM. He later develops a new move called Tiger Fang which he uses to defeat Kevin. During a tag team match with The third he was unmasked after having his mask ripped off. During the final battle against The Third he uses a new mask made of his and Tiger the Dark's and battles The Third.
